Credo: Healthcare and law should see mental illnesses as medical rather than criminal justice issues; behaviors are often inculpable symptoms; treatment rather than punishment is a humane response; first-responders should be clinicians rather than police; serious illness should be the priority; family caregivers are stakeholders.

Last Notes npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer I can’t remember if Pope Francis called the choice between pro-choice Biden and Trump in 2020 as one of picking the lesser of two evils, like he reportedly described the choice between Harris and Trump recently. Maybe Biden got bonus points in 2020 for being a white, male, Catholic or Harris is getting demerits in 2024 for being a black, female, non-Catholic.

More than half of Democrats in Congress are calling for Menendez to resign. Meanwhile, a convicted felon is a suitable Republican candidate for President of the United States. Talking heads on television ignore the irony. #Menendez #Trump #Alito #Thomas #Politics #Justice #Law npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1q9p…endx My guess is that different law enforcement agencies at the event did not cooperate much because of territorialism and jealousy.

Seek community. Find people you trust to share your thoughts, feelings and concerns. Make sure they are people who will listen without judgment. Rely on friends, family or community groups who can help you laugh or find distractions during stressful times. (5/5) npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer 4. Live your values. One way to impact politics and decrease stress is to make sure our daily lives are closely aligned with our values. Values are fundamental beliefs that guide behaviors. With a clear sense of our own values, it is easier to maintain focus on what we find important and what we can control. (4/5) npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer 3. Focus on what you can control…. And on your personal wellbeing by engaging in things you enjoy such as hobbies, exercise and time with friends. If you enjoy being politically active, find one or two meaningful causes to which you can donate your time or money. (3/5) npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer 2. Take a social media break. Like the 24-hour news cycle, social media is designed to stimulate strong (mostly negative) emotional reactions.

Limit your news consumption. The 24-hour news coverage is designed to keep you on high alert. Pay attention to your mood and physical reactions while consuming the news; if you feel anxious, agitated or angry, these are cues to turn it off. #News #Politics #Stress #Health #MentalHealth (1/5) https://hr.harvard.edu/files/humanresources/files/coping_with_political_stress.pdf npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1drc…s7v5 I haven’t seen the video but am going to guess it was not the kind of shirt an epidemiologist or microbiologist would wear. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1zly…j8gf Because it was easier than putting numbers on the sea floor? npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1xe5…jqwq I hope you continued to enjoy The Overstory.

How did that work out? npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1wm2…yawh 😂 npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1wm2…yawh I heard it said to “pack up your troubles in your old kit-bag and smile, smile, smile.” But I don’t own a kit-bag. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1wm2…yawh I’m good at worrying too. But I only worry about things one should worry about. 😉 npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1wm2…yawh Yeah, my wife won’t wear one either. 🤷🏻♂️ npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1yl3…323t That’s a head-scratcher. Are you sure you’re not purchasing half a hoodie? 😉 npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1wm2…yawh It is okay to wear a mask, even if you’re the only one. That’s what I regularly tell myself. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub16mz…uzxf It is similar to how peanut butter cups were invented. https://youtu.be/O7oD_oX-Gio?si=0m5SP-Wb9dojDxv- npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer I watched Amelie. It was a nice way to forget about MAGA and the SCOTUS for a while. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer I am scrolling through movies that are streaming, trying to pick one to watch, and it occurs to me that someone should make a movie about this MAGA Supreme Court. #Movies #SCOTUS #MAGA npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1lzz…jhl3 This is a great thread with hugely important critiques of the SCOTUS decision to grant broad immunity to Trump. Thanks for creating it and updating it. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1hqj…jea3 It looks great on you! npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub12kp…439z You might notice that Republicans are curiously not big believers in self-regulation for public schools, higher education, women's healthcare, and social welfare programs. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1xpc…3t05 I agree that a toadstool would be better than Trump. I also think Kamala Harris would be better than Joe Biden. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer Thank goodness Supreme Court justices have such high regard for precedent as they stated during their confirmation hearings. If I had not heard them say so with my own ears, I might think they are liars. #SupremeCourt npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1mgu…5k75 This Supreme Court has done a lot of that--it is a conservative thing: Complex problems have simple answers that are wrong. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1u3t…c6ug Very well-done summary. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1pv5…zq0l Well put! My trust is in Kamala Harris. I hope she is given more opportunities to shine. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer I rescued a large red-eared slider turtle from the street this morning, put it in a bucket, and drove it to a reliable pond a few miles from my house. I wonder how many indulgences I earned toward my future time in purgatory. 😉 npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1v2s…mqq5 Additionally, Texas prohibits Medicaid from covering gender-affirming hormone therapy even in adults. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub13tp…y83f Anyone who is cognitively intact and tells the truth. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer I am not worried about how Biden’s debate performance will affect my vote: I am voting blue no matter the nominee. I am worried about how Biden’s debate performance will affect the votes of previously undecided voters. I can’t imagine it will elicit their support. That is why I think he should step aside for the good of the country. #Biden npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1aq2…4nfw I hope President Biden can be persuaded to step aside. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1gu5…mzsp Oh, how about Pete Buttigieg? npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub1gu5…mzsp I think Kamala Harris, Jamie Raskin, and Gavin Newsom would all be better candidates. Maybe Jill Biden will persuade her husband to step aside. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer @npub120f…j4y0 Yes. He could set a good example for other elderly politicians and judges by stepping aside for the good of the country. npub18ethgcgktsukkmguku8q20y4z9gwjqkdlldcd9732mglgkgmux7qwe9ycn Joseph Meyer This debate is a disaster for President Biden. The hubris of elderly U.S. politicians and judges who will not step down to make room for competent replacements is a tragedy for the U.S.A.
